‘America’s Next Top Model’ Alum Makes Startling Appearance in Court

Remember back when Britney Spears shaved her head? So do we — but now the pop star isn't alone in showing up to court with a startling new look.

Former "America's Next Top Model" contestant Renee Alway shaved all of her hair before appearing in court on Thursday to face the judge in her burglary case which involved a dramatic, six-hour armed standoff with cops on June 28, as well as charges of narcotics possession, fraud, and committing a felony while out on bail for a separate charges (which also stemmed from drugs and theft).

Though Alway said nothing as she stood before the judge in handcuffs, her sister later told TMZ that the new 'do (or lack thereof) is meant to symbolize a new beginning for the troubled star. Renee wants "to start over," she explained. Apparently losing her locks is the first step.
